Access control system migration without manual re-entry of data

What we can migrate

The scope depends on the interfaces, export formats and licenses of both systems. We confirm it during analysis, before agreeing the plan.

• People and their groups (for example folders, departments, companies).
• Credentials: cards and codes.
• Access levels and their assignments to doors and zones.
• The site structure: doors, zones, devices.

How a migration runs

1. 01

   Analysis

   We inventory the data in the source system and the interfaces of the target system, including ATS8600 or Gamanet C4.

2. 02

   Mapping

   We define how the source data model maps onto the target one, and which data needs a decision.

3. 03

   Trial migration

   We move the data on a copy and compare the result with the original before changing anything in production.

4. 04

   Cut-over

   We run the final migration in a service window agreed with the site and verify the result.

How we limit risk

• a trial migration on a copy of the data before the cut-over,
• a discrepancy report: what was moved and what needs a decision,
• a rollback plan agreed before work starts,
• the source system stays untouched until verification.

What we need for the analysis

• access to the source system or a data export,
• documentation and licenses of the target system,
• a description of the site structure,
• a decision-maker on the site's side.

Frequently asked questions

Can any system be migrated?

Not always. Feasibility depends on whether the data can be read from the source system and written to the target one. We confirm it during analysis.

Do cards have to be reissued after a migration?

We establish this during analysis. Where the target system allows it, we carry over the credential numbers so cards do not need replacing.

Does a migration require downtime?

We plan the cut-over in a service window agreed with the site, and the source system stays untouched until verification.

Do you migrate to or from Gamanet C4 or ATS8600?

We work with Gamanet C4 and ATS8600, so both platforms are covered in the migration analysis. The specific direction and scope are agreed once we know your installation.
